But a set of experts believe that it is not possible for the country to go entirely back on track when it comes to democracy as the civilians are already accustomed to what value a democratic nation carries. The South Asian nation had to struggle a lot to reach where it has so it will not be easy to take it back to square one.

Priscilla Clapp, who served as the U.S. chief of mission in Myanmar from 1999 to 2002 knows the situation very well and hence asserted, “The coup may ultimately prove to be the dramatic end to the older generation of leadership in Myanmar.”
